9781422008188Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.
Alcoholic beverages contain ethanol, a type of alcohol that is the key ingredient in drinks like beer, wine, and spirits. Ethanol is also used in some household products, such as hand sanitizers and cleaning solutions. The World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classifies alcoholic beverages as Group 1, meaning they are carcinogenic to humans. This classification is based on strong evidence linking alcohol consumption to several types of cancer, including those of the mouth, throat, liver, and breast. IARC's evaluation, published in Monograph Volume 100E, notes that the risk increases with the amount of alcohol consumed. It's important to understand that this is a regulatory classification, not a medical diagnosis. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

Methanol is a simple alcohol, also known as wood alcohol, that is used in products like antifreeze, windshield washer fluid, solvents, and some fuels. It is regulated under EU REACH Annex XVII because it can be harmful if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through the skin. The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) restricts its use in consumer products, especially those that could be misused or accidentally ingested, as methanol can cause serious health effects like vision damage or metabolic disruption. For example, it is banned in certain concentrations in windshield washer fluids and denatured alcohol to protect people from accidental poisoning. The restriction aims to limit exposure in everyday items, not to ban methanol entirely, since it is still used safely in industrial settings with proper controls.
